Talkr is an AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) app for non-verbal users and their families. Communication shouldn't depend on a waiting list. Whether you're supporting someone with autism, aphasia, ALS, a stroke recovery, or any other speech difference, Talkr gives them a voice from day one. HOW IT WORKS Tap pictures to build sentences. Each tap speaks the word aloud. Combine words to express needs, feelings and ideas. Your loved one can finally say "I'm hungry", "I'm tired", "I want to go home". KEY FEATURES • 3,400+ AAC illustrations with multilingual search • Quick Phrases: 30 ready-made phrases for daily life • Custom categories, words and recorded voices • Sentence prediction that learns from how you communicate • PDF export for printable communication boards (Pro) • Sync across all your devices via your free Talkr account • Share boards with family, teachers, caregivers WHO IT'S FOR • Children with autism or developmental delay • Adults with aphasia, ALS, stroke recovery • Speech therapists, special education teachers • Families building communication tools at home WHY TALKR We built Talkr because waiting months for a prescribed AAC device while someone sits silent is unacceptable. Talkr is available today, on the iPad or iPhone you already own, at a price that doesn't bankrupt families. PRICING Free: 10 boards, 100 words, full sync and sharing. Pro unlocks unlimited boards, words and PDF export. Choose monthly, annual, or one-time lifetime — see local prices in app. PRIVACY Your data stays yours. We never sell information, never show ads, never use your communication for AI training. Account deletion is one tap and removes everything from our servers.

TinyBridge Choice Boards

TinyBridge Choice Boards turns any moment into a conversation. For non-verbal children — and the parents, therapists, and educators around them — TinyBridge is the AAC choice-board app that builds itself. Snap a photo of a restaurant menu, a snack shelf, or a play setup, and TinyBridge instantly generates a choice board with clear, AI-generated symbol tiles the child can tap to communicate. No more drawing tiles by hand. No more boards that go stale. WHY FAMILIES AND THERAPISTS CHOOSE TINYBRIDGE • Build a choice board in seconds, not hours. Photo-to-board recognition extracts the items in front of the child and generates a tile for each — instantly. • Symbols that look right. Every tile is rendered as a clean, consistent illustration so the child sees a stable visual vocabulary, not a mix of clipart and stock photos. • Custom boards for real moments. Mealtimes, transitions, getting dressed, doctor visits, playground choices — make a board for the situation you're in, right now. • Edit and the board updates live. Add a label, change a label, save — TinyBridge regenerates the imagery for the new items in the background. The child's board is always current. • Default boards on day one. Sign in and your child has a starter set of common scenarios already built — Snack Time, Getting Dressed, At The Park, and more — so you can hand the iPad to your child the minute the app opens. • Sign in with Google, sync everywhere. Your boards travel with your account. Open the app on a different iPhone or iPad and everything is there. WHO IT'S FOR • Parents and caregivers of non-verbal or minimally-verbal children • Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) running 1:1 or group sessions • Special-education classrooms and aides • Early-intervention clinics and pediatric therapy practices • Anyone who needs to build a quick, custom AAC board on the spot DESIGNED WITH CARE TEAMS IN MIND TinyBridge is part of an integrated AAC + Care Network platform. The Choice Board app is the everyday tool the child uses; future updates will add synchronization with the broader care team — therapists, school staff, and family — so progress, vocabulary, and preferences travel with the child instead of being siloed in one binder, one device, or one classroom. PRIVACY AND SAFETY • Photos you take to generate a board are processed for symbol generation and not used for advertising. • You control your account and your boards. Sign in with Google; sign out at any time. • Designed for use by adults supporting a child — not for children to register or sign in independently. ABOUT TINYBRIDGE TinyBridge is building the integrated AAC + Care Network platform for every child who needs a voice. The Choice Board app is the first piece available on the App Store; a closed beta of the LAMP-based AAC device with the full AI stack is currently in trials, with the wait list reopening in June 2026.
